HI Mac, I would recommend you go to your regular health care professional for advice... they might be able to point you in the right direction, best of luck to you on your weight loss journey!

I recommend a low carbohydrate high Protein like south beach or Atkins. Many obese people eat way too many simple carbs which trigger hunger.

Southbeach is a very humane eating style. As a vegetarian, it worked pretty well for me (until it didn't!) Choosing low glycemic index carbs makes such a difference.

I decided on WLS last December. Since then I have been on several programs. Each had a reason

Jan and Feb-- on my own. Cut down portions and did a Protein meal replacement for lunch on work days.

Mar-Aug. -- medically supervised program: 3-4 oz lean high quality Proteins, veggies, some carbs, lots of Water.

Sept Pre- op liquid diet. 3-4 Protein shakes per day and lots of Water

Oct 3 ----- sleeve Surgery. 1 week of Clear liquids, 3 weeks of thick liquids.< /p>

Nov. Soft Proteins ground chicken, ground turkey , tuna, cottage cheese

Dec - lean proteins. chicken turkey fish etc. no beef, pork , or veal.

I am grateful for the help I got along the way. I have all of these programs in my bag of tricks. I can, and do mix and match them to control what I eat.

Next week I get steak! Woo hoo!

I have lost 65 pounds in 2013. 35 pounds more to go. I feel great. This has been a life changing experience.

I wish all of you a Happy, Healthy, and Successful. 2014!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
